Double Taxation Concern

Many U.S. taxpayers working overseas express concern about the risk of double taxation. Tax treaties existing between the U.S. and most foreign countries provide a specific mechanism for eliminating double taxation. This mechanism grants a credit for the taxes paid in the foreign country to reduce the taxes of a resident of the country. A limited amount of the foreign income tax you pay can be credited against your U.S. tax liability. Depending on the specific situation, using a full amount available foreign tax credit may be more beneficial to the expat than using foreign income exclusion. We analyze all options and offer the best tax-saving solution for each individual client.
